    Default Manu Propria Pens & Pipes - Raden Negoro

    It's a while since I have posted in this forum.

    Today I have finished a pair of Fountan Pen and Smoking Pipe with "Raden Negoro" Urushi Lacquer.
    Traditional Negoro Lacquer with additionally applied pieces of sparkling Abalone Shell.
    Best regards,

    Martin

    Sometimes I see abstract art which which elicits the most deeply visceral appeal—the patterns, contrasts, textures, shapes, and colors delivering a sense of enjoyment that soaks into the very bones and nerves and fibers of my being.

    My mind, in such cases, utterly fails to conjure logical explanation for my reaction; the art speaks to me on an emitely separate plane.

    This pen is one of those rare pieces of art for me. You have outdone yourself, Martin. I am in absolute awe.

    Thank you for your encouraging comment. Unfortunally the sparkling effect of the polished Abalone parts cannot be captured properly in a picture

    They really are beautiful.

    Does anybody remember the matching tie & hanky boxed sets we used to get for Christmas? Now a matching pen & pipe is something else.

    There is a time when this would have suited me just fine.
